Barney was a stray cat. He is such a friendly, cheerful fellow that it’s hard to imagine how he ended up lost and alone. But now here he is at Feline Rescue—with a warm place to stay, a soft bed, and another chance at finding a loving home!
Barney is an easy-going young cat, who unfortunately, has tested positive for the feline leukemia virus. Feline leukemia is an immunodeficiency virus. It is not transferable to dogs or to people and is only transferable to other cats that live in direct contact with each other. Some cats with feline leukemia live for years with no ill effects other than a weakened immune system. Others live short lives. Because he faces an uncertain future, it can be hard to find a home for a cat like Barney.
Right now Barney is happy, healthy, and active. At Feline Rescue, we believe that a happy cat like Barney deserves to live his life. It’s the quality of life that really matters. And we want Barney to have the best life ever! If you could give Barney a home and a wonderful life, come to the adoption center and meet him. You’ll love his sunny disposition!
Barney could be an only cat, could live with a dog, or might be a good companion for another feline-leukemia-positive cat. If you are interested in learning more about Barney, please stop by the >Feline Rescue Adoption Center or call 651-642-5900, ext.3.
My husband and I are the ones who found Barney and brought him in.
ReplyDeleteSeveral months ago we noticed he was living in our garage, and began feeding him and spending time with him. Once we gave him food, he decided he was in love with us, and we were in love with him!
Unfortunately, we have two dogs, a boxer and a brussels griffon, and the boxer does not tolerate cats. (the brussels griffon and Barney got along pretty well though). So we knew the best thing for everyone was to find Barney a loving home where he could get more attention from people.
We checked with friends and family, and unfortunately didn't know anyone who was looking for a cat to adopt, so we turned to Feline Rescue for help. We toured the shelter, and noticed right away how well taken care of and loved all of the kitties were. It was very important to me also that it was a no-kill shelter.
Bringing Barney in was one of the hardest things we've had to do, and there were many tears, but seeing his sweet face on here and seeing how loved he is, and that he is safe and warm and happy, makes all of the heartbreak worth it.
And although we were devastated to hear that he tested positive for feline leukemia, he has a real chance for a good home at the shelter, and a good life until he is adopted.
Thank you for taking such good care of him, and I will keep checking his page and hoping he gets adopted soon!
